ADA and Accessibility
** ALERTS FOR STUDENTS**
Alert #1:
It has come to our attention that there was a quirk when you forwarded your Accommodation Memorandums (AMs) to your faculty. The forwarded emails were flagged and were delivered to faculty members’ spam folders. The cause of the problem has been identified, and a patch has been implemented. To ensure that your faculty are aware of your academic accommodations, please do one or both of the following:
- Download the AM and attach it to a new email to your faculty;
- Print the AM and deliver to your faculty member in person.
Note: If you do not have the capacity to print your accommodation memorandum, please come to the Campus Disability Resource Center (CDRC), Lower Library, Suite 5, and we will print the AMs for you.
Alert #2:
Scholarship available for students with visual limitations.
